Sky Sports Mix look like an part time channel.

From the surveys last year the intention is to show around 10 hours a week of live action on the channel. The rest of the time will be padded out with documentaries, archive sports events, highlights of recent events and shows like Soccer AM and The F1 Show. From there I'm sure any additional time will be filled with SKY Sports News.
They've taken the lead from BT Sports Showcase but all signs suggest SKY intend to run SKY Sports Mix as a proper channel fulltime channel. BT Sports Showcase is pretty much an infomercial channel which shows around 4 hours of live action per week, when European football is played. There's been weeks when there's been nothing more on there than their looped promos.
